The nature of those relationships, the extent to which it was an association, the extent to which it was some kind of command and control, is a matter which we don't know the answer to at the moment.

I'm sure we'll have some sort of conversation. That's going to be a challenge, even if we start negotiations. He's a talented guy who is going to command a lot.

In hindsight it is now clear and apparent that there was an exceptional level of stress placed upon ... O'Brien. The chain of command was responsible for this pressure.

In a time when his party almost never exceeded 51 percent of the seats in the House, he was able time and again to command the discipline to deliver. He was always playing on the edge, and people who play on the edge, and are effective, become targets.

I'm not sure you can have an event like that anymore. When we made the film, as you can see, we had dial phones, there was no Internet, there was no cable, there was no computerization of our culture, and so one event like this -- one scandal -- could command that kind of attention.

I made a few more mistakes today. Overall, I think it was OK. The fastball, the command is not there yet. Next time out it will be better.

I have only been to there once last year and in spite of our result (8th after losing the lead due to a rear puncture and resultant brake failure) I thoroughly enjoyed the roads. They are very challenging and command respect, especially with all the rocks that can be dislodged and dragged out into the racing line. You have to drive to stay out of trouble just look how many crews were like us and had at least one puncture last year,

Talk about command ? he was in command all day. We established the fastball early. That made the pitches after that all that much better.

The biggest problem we are having right now is command and control, who is in charge, who is making decisions, who is in position for leadership,

The better he gets at his low post game, the way more valuable he has. If Troy can get where he can finish at the box and be a real good post player that can command a double team... now we're talking.

The bottleneck of PC computing is the laborious nature of hierarchical command structures. It limits the user experience and leads to feature underutilization. The 205PRO can dramatically change this. In commercial applications, the productivity improvement is direct and measurable. For the rest of us, it makes software more interactive and engaging.

The biggest thing I want these guys to understand is that last year is done and gone and it's history. That is the critical factor. There is no sneaking up on people now. We gained some respect, but now we have to continue to earn respect. You can't command it.

Any time you face your old teammates, you want to do well - especially since it had been such a short time since I got traded. My fastball command was the best it's been all spring. If I can feel like that every time out, I'll be happy.

It's real important in the event like the power outage, a snowstorm, a tornado, a flood or anything like that to where it's difficult to get emergency personnel to where they need to go.

Not to take away anything from those other guys. But bringing in a veteran like Trent was huge. Young players watch his work ethic. From Day One, he has taken command and embraced the leadership role on and off the field. A lot of young guys can see than and take a lot from it.

I want to see him get command of the situational stuff. I thought he handled it fine.

Don Lisi has become quite a good pitcher. Teams haven't scored much on him and he's got good command of his pitches. He can throw multiple pitches for strikes.

(The offense) makes my job a lot easier. I had pretty good command of my fastball and slider and was able to hit my spots pretty well." ()

The non-Cameron camp did command 106 votes against David Cameron's 90. It's not a shoo-in and I think this debate is actually what we need. It is what David Cameron needs. What we have now seen is that we have a man who can conduct himself in a fluent manner, who has ideas, who can withstand some pretty virulent attacks in the press. That is a quality one should not downplay.

The families, much like the people working in the command center, are clinging to every hope.

The key to any great performance is that your key players make plays. What Troy Smith does is, he has a great command of our offense, and when it doesn't go right, he can improvise.

I had command of my sinker, command of my cutter, and command of my breaking ball, and I was able to throw it when I wanted to throw it and keep them off balance all night,

I had command of my sinker, command of my cutter, command of my breaking ball, and I was able to throw it where I wanted to throw it, ... I kept them off balance all night. We got some nice defensive plays, a couple nice defensive plays. It was a well-played game all around.

In other markets, particularly in Europe, there are private labels that do command a premium.

In the back of my mind I wanted to come in here and throw well based on my last outing. I fell into a groove last year to start the season, then I had that chest strain.

It has been my misfortune to be engaged in more battles than any other general on the other side of the Atlantic; but there was never a time during my command when I would not have chosen some settlement by reason rather than the sword.

Cmdr. Waddle has been stripped of his command and his career effectively terminated. For a Naval officer who served for 20 years his country, I would say this is absolutely devastating. He has paid dearly,

Cliff really pitched a great game today. He has looked like the old Cliff the past two weeks. He has really worked hard and has good command on the mound. We hit the ball well today and I am proud of the team for coming out and finishing the series with the win. We still have a ways to go but we played well this weekend.

Cisco was terrific tonight. His command was brilliant.

I just find it difficult to believe that we're not meeting a need if that need has been articulated to us. ... I think that must be getting lost in the chain of command there.

I just controlled both sides of the plate, changed speeds here and there, and expanded the zone when I needed to. Mostly, I just had better command tonight.

His fastball command was a little erratic, but the command on his offspeed pitches was there, and his velocity was good. He got his work in. It did not set him back.

His fastball command was a little erratic, but the velocity was good.

His fastball command was a lot better than it was the other day. He was just really aggressive. It's an attitude I'd like to see more of.

His fastball is above average in terms of life and velocity, he has a hard breaking ball and the changeup has become a solid third pitch. And when his command gets better and he's able to throw his pitches where he wants, he can be a really good all-around pitcher.

His fastball was short (Friday), and his command was mediocre. That being said, you're normally not able to make that statement and have a pitcher only give up one run in five-plus innings at Coors Field. So he deserves a pat on the back for that.

His hip wasn't a factor. His command was an issue. He basically pitched out of the stretch the entire time he was out there.

His breaking ball, change-up and fastball are sharp. His command is good. So I'm pleased. That's what you want more than anything, that they execute what they're trying to do and he was doing it fairly well. There were three hits that accounted for his runs -- two doubles and a homer. Of the three, only one was a little bit of a mistake.

His breaking ball was on the plate today. The game against San Diego, he kept missing with it. His command was much better today.

If you teach them to do it right, you win. If you don't teach them to do it right, you lose. The big key is consistency. Each group is accountable to each other and things are real defined. Are you hitting the line or not? Are you growling (during drills) or not? Are you reaching the top lip or not? Are you going on command or not? We have to find out how do you react to coaching. We are always making adjustments. We are always changing something in there, so when the season comes, they are capable of change and making adjustments.

I gave up two bombs. Everything else was pretty good. That tells me that when I execute my pitches, I'm getting the results I want. I guess the downside is the result of the two home runs. I've got to get a little bit better command on my fastball.

If you want to be a leader whom people follow with absolute conviction, you have to be a likable leader. Tyrants and curmudgeons with brilliant vision can command a reluctant following for a time, but it never lasts. They burn people out before they ever get to see what anyone is truly capable of.

Channel 6 is a wonderful tool, and I wanted to transform it to rein-force the command message and what the Army is doing.

He's working on a change this year. He also has more command of the curve.

He throws the breaking ball and the secondary pitches for strikes. Having said that, we probably need to polish up the command of those secondary pitches.

He struggled with his command a little bit. He looked good on some pitches, real good on some pitches. Then he struggled a little bit.

He took a hit and his career was not as bright as it was two years ago. To people who command very significant amounts of money, a misstep is very expensive.

He took command in the huddle. He kept talking to me, trying to pump me up.

He's really struggling to command the baseball right now. He's struggling to command his fastball and his breaking ball. It's just a little mechanical issue that we'll continue to work on. But he got a little better as the game went on.

He's really turned into an unbelievable pitcher. He's got great command of all three of his pitches. He's only going to get better.

(Clemens) is tough enough to hit when it's over the plate and if he starts getting a big plate, that's going to be tough for us. I know in our ballpark, both Tim (McClelland) and Greg (Gibson), and I think Wally will, too, will call a good game and not get excited about the home crowd. You always worry when a guy has good command that he can get somebody excited.

He's always tough, but we had a pretty good approach. It seemed like his command wasn't exactly where he wanted it and we tried to take advantage of it.

He's low in the strike zone with his fastball and has an out pitch with his change up. He's worked hard on the command of his fastball. I think he's made improvement.

He thinks he's found something, a little something to keep his head centered and still on the plate. He made better pitches. His fastball command improved as a the spring went on, his breaking ball sharpened up. He feels confident going into the season.

He thought he was pretty special. He was a happy little baby, with a big smile that could command a room even now.

He threw an awesome game and was in total command the entire time.
